Indeed, no sign of the trucks ad so far. Confused Maybe they've held it back.

Dear All,

Your favourite ad is coming back! I work in Coca-Cola marketing and can confirm it will be back on air in GB from 18th November. As soon as I know what programs its in i'll let you know.

Well done on the campaign, this was one of the reasons we had to bring it back.


Just saw it on ITV2 just now! Very Happy

I haven't seen it either. Probably a good thing though, we don't want too many airings before even December.

Apparently they're not being shown during December.

3) According to our good friend Stephen Fry the advert will be back on air this Sunday [the 18th]. It should appear during I'm a Celebrity on ITV1 and will run untill the end of November!

I don't like it tbh. It's been cut down a lot so we get very little of the "Holidays are coming" chorus. Shame. I mean, it's nice to have it back but why cut it down so much?

Yeah it's got to have the 'something magic, in the night, can you see it shining bright' bit. But still, it's better than nothing I suppose. By the way it's 'holiday refreshment's what we bring ' Razz I think I know the whole song off by heart now Confused

I wonder why they're only showing it until the end of November? This fact, together with the ridiculously truncated version of the advert they're showing, makes the whole thing a total let down, frankly. Rolling Eyes

It's not bad but why does it have to be such an effort to get something that is well loved back on the screen. Rolling Eyes And as for it only running until the end of November? Chances are we'll see last years back all through December.

I seen one that was about 30 seconds long, not as long as the original but longer than what most people are saying. I nearly had a heart attack when it came back on because its the best advert ever Very Happy Laughing and last year was just rubbish with Santa looking in the window Rolling Eyes
